WOOL The wool has been so thoroughly

Intil at present dealers are feeling much cn-
Iouraged, and look for considerable activity

may cause a weakening In holders' Ideas.
Texas wools are being held very firmly by
dealers, their ideas being in some cases above
tho accepted level of the market. Buyers are
not taking anjGnlcss their needs are impera

amount of attention. B wools are held at 37o
to 38o for lambs', while C supers are quoted at
30c and upward. Foreign wools continue quiet
and in moderate request, inquiries belngprln
cipally for Mediterranean. East Indian and
South American" wools. The business of the
week on the whole is slightly in advance of
that done during fae previous week, the heav
iest business being' in pulled wools.
HOPS With hop-picking- at hand there is
increasing firmness In the views of holders
and no disposition to make concessions. No
sales have been reported during the past
wetk, although some very fiatterlngffcrs have
been made for choice crops. New York advices
of August 20 comment as follows:
Considerable Interest continues to be shown
in the crop prospects of England. Cable ad
vices received "Wednesday reported no -improvement
in the weather conditions, and es
timate the crop at 330,000 cwt. Cablo ad
vices .from Germany reported cool weather,
but It was understood tha tthe crop prospects
continued favorable. Advices received from
up the state were of a conflicting character,
6ome reporting the outlook as decidedly dis
couraging, while others reported the crop
showing some Improvement. Estimates range
all the way from one-quarter to GO per cent
of last year, with the majority of the local
trade looking for a yield about half the size
of last year, or about 35.000 bales. Coast ad
vice's reported firm markets, with the outlook
for the crop favorable, the general estlmato
being of a crop of from 175.000 to 180,000
bales. Locally there was a quiet market.
A moderate supply of prime 1001 States and
Pacifies were reported coming on offer at xi.
Dealers were not bidding, being disposed to
hold back, although the Indications were that
fair sales could have been made at 2324c for

demand from brewers for 1002 hops continued
slow, dealers generally reporting a flat nuuet

STOCKS GO TO PIECES
CUT IX READ IX G DIVIDEXD THE
MOST: STARTLIXG FACTOR.
Apprehensive That Speculators; Who
Are Boomiag Prices, Are. Acting
Without the Rest Information.
NEW TORK, Aug. 27. The early stock
market today was a repetition ot yesterday,
but on a smaller scale. The resemblance
extended to the reactionary tendency caused
by the heavy realizing in progress under cover
of the sustaining strength ot a few stocks,
but It waa not until the announcement of the
reduction ot the dividend on Reading first
preferred that the Weakness ot the whole
market became acute, and prices broke all
around to well below last night- There has
teen an impression tor many weeks that the
Reading dividend would be reduced in order
to extend the voting trust, which, under the
term's ot the trust, would be dissolved by the
payment of one year's full dividend on the
first preferred stock. The announcement last
week that the Southern Railroad voting trust
had been requested by the stockholders to de
fer the dissolution of the trust by the post
ponement of the dividend on the preferred
stock was a. strong corroboration ot the ex
pectation of similar action In the case of
Reading. It is improbable, therefore, that the
mere ract of the reduction of the dividend
would have shocked the stock market, bad it
not been for the determined way in which
the Reading stocks were advanced this morn
ing on the purchase of enormous blocks ot
stocks. The sudden tumble in those stocks
caused by the announcement of the dividend
reduction gave rise to a chilling apprehension
that the bold speculators who are leading tho
operations for advancing prices are acting
without the best Information in all cases, and
may be putting up all prices simply by tho
force of abundant funds,"" and without sub
stantial grounds for the higher range ot val
ues. Selling to take profits was going on yes
terday, and today was an additional factor
in arousing uneasiness as to the -solidity of
the demand, which has made the higher range
of prices. The favorites of yesterday and
day before pretty generally suffered from
realizing, even while the Readings. Illinois
Central and Colorado Fuel were advancing
most buoyantly. "
Additional heavy transfers of currency to
the West was a contributing factor to unset
tling confidence. Another disturbing Influ

CHICAGO, Aug. 27. All craln markets

More Important as a pale retarding Influence
was the fact that Duluth did not receive a
single car of wheat, whereas last year there
were 130 cars. Outside markets were weak and
and exerted an Influence. Cash business was
small. September started 3c lower, at 713'

Corn started weak on the influence 6f the
dry weather and more .liberal acceptances of
Chicago bids in tho country. Alt day Sep

vailed. In other months there was better
buying, particularly in May, In which there

small local receipts had little- effect agajns

fell. September closed &c off, and weak
